This was my creation of Gettysburg for a Napoleonic battle done a couple of years ago

Looks awfully like this and nothing like Pennsylvania.

No worries, not your fault. Great site this but can be frustrating.

This is from above Little Round Top, in middle and to left is Devil's Den and in background is the peach orchard. The
"Confederates" are trying to gain a foothold on LRT but ultimately failed as the Silesian Grenadiers held. The " Union" also did manage to hold DD but it was a hard battle with the outcome in doubt until the end.

What I have done is take actual OOB of Gettysburg and filled that out to the man with my Napoleonic army, the Confederate being Russian and Bavarian, Union from Prussian and British.
Mostly Napoleonic battalions became regiments and batteries were broken up into stands.

This is battle at the peach orchard, some Russian units are breaking but they did hold it eventually. Shows my causality markers that I made dropping one every time a stand is removed.

Good effort and well done. I like the clean lines of the tabletop. On Sunday 1st Sept I'll be playing in a Napoleonic game based on a Crimean War scenario, here are some practice games before we run it: link I also used the Battle of Alma as a basis for a Franco-Prussian War battle a few years back. So many scenarios, so little time.

P.S. Ignore those with non-positive comments ;-)
